Infantino Adviser Quits Amid Growing FIFA World Cup Plan Opposition

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take

This resignation signals that even Infantino's inner circle doubts the viability of his ambitious World Cup expansion scheme.

💡 Why it matters

If confederations boycott the World Cup, FIFA's revenue model and the entire international football calendar could be thrown into chaos.

A senior adviser to FIFA President Gianni Infantino resigned as the Asian Football Confederation joined UEFA and CONCACAF in opposing a controversial World Cup investment plan. The plan, which would create a new global tournament, faces mounting resistance from major confederations.
